04 Dec 2020 | “How do we think about leadership in different ways?” An honest conversation with Zora Editor-in-Chief Vanessa K. De Luca | 00:49:16 | |
On today's podcast episode, Jamé sits down with none other than one of her major role models and "friend" (in the words of the talent themselves), Vanessa K De Luca. At the time of this recording, Essence Communications was under fire for an article published on Medium that delved into toxic workplace structures and the lack of safe spaces for Black women in corporate America. As companies and institutions have fought to continue to expand DEI initiatives specifically for BIPOC audiences, these conversations are more critical than ever. About Vanessa K. De Luca: Vanessa K. De Luca is a creative leader, driven by finding innovative ways to tell human-centered stories, guide new conversations, and grow brands.

14 Aug 2020 | What The Fashion Industry Needs To Finally Get Its *Ish Together | 00:42:50 | |
On this week's episode of the podcast, Jamé discusses her three tips on how the fashion industry can finally get itself back on track. "But when diversity is done right, the return on investment is significant. Companies with above-average diversity in management produced “innovation revenue”— or the share of revenues generated from enhanced or entirely new products or services — that was 19 percentage points higher than that of companies with below-average leadership diversity." – Vogue Business As always, if you liked this episode, leave us your reviews or ratings on Apple Podcast, OR just share this episode on your social media and tag a friend.

Welcome back to another episode of TBM! Today, we're discussing building your own platforms and not depending on anyone else's.

15 May 2020 | Why It's Still Important to Share Wins During A Pandemic | 00:22:53 | |
This week I shifted gears and an entirely different conversation I wanted to have to focus on taking care of your inner self during COVID-19. Many people in media are losing their jobs right and left, and others are being furloughed, salary reduced or whatever else. Even in the fashion and beauty space, I have had to pivot in ways I would have never imagined even six months ago. Pretty much, now is not a fun time to work in a landscape that focuses so much on advertising money and what consumers want. However, I do believe it's still important to share your wins even in this time, and this episode quickly dives into why.

14 May 2021 | 3 Things To Consider Before Getting Your Master's Degree + Congrats To All The 2020 / 2021 Graduates! | 00:31:10 | |
In December 2020, I had the honor and distinction of finally graduating with my master’s degree from LIM College in New York City. My program lasted a year and a half. And a lot changed in that short period because of the pandemic, along with life changes and stress. However, I am consistently asked if getting a Master’s is something that you even should consider, and if so, what are some steps you should take to achieve your goals. I want to first preface this by saying that nobody can decide for you when it comes to your education. My mother and father instilled the values of education in me as a child. I learned later on that I suffered from extreme anxiety and stress, especially when it came to tests and tight deadlines with multiple courses. When I graduated from Howard University, I wanted to make sure that going back to school was the decision that I wanted for myself, not a decision I made for somebody else. That being said, I waited, and I’m so thankful that I did because it was ultimately the best experience for me. With my master’s in hand, I am eyeing additional educational opportunities, whether that is an MBA program or going and pursuing my Ph.D. However, if you are considering returning to school or possibly going back for your master’s or higher education during this time, there are a few things that I think you can consider.

26 Jun 2020 | “Nothing is beneath you. Do the work” with NYC-based Creative Director Khalid Briggs | 00:56:08 | |
In today's episode, we sat down and chatted it up with Khalid Briggs, a creative director and stylist based in NYC. I've admired Khalid humble-yet-assertive stance on fashion for years and knew that he could speak to the power of doing the work and forging your own path in fashion. I especially appreciated how he discussed the cumulative nature of fashion and how you can learn so much in other categories of your life that then apply to your craft. More info on Khalid: Khalid Briggs is a Creative Director based in NYC. As an experienced producer, he pulls his direction from his immense love for culture, style and fashion, and visual production. He has collaborated with brands and companies such as Adidas, Samsung, Complex, Bloomingdales, Hugo Boss, Footlocker, Walmart and more. Khalid expresses his creativity through various mediums, however, no matter if it's design, styling, or creative direction, he always brings a great level of excitement, curiosity, and passion to every project he’s apart of.

19 Jun 2020 | What is Juneteenth And Why Do We Care? | 00:38:46 | |
Welcome back to another episode of TheBlondeMisfit podcast! This week’s episode is very special and near and dear to me because we are focusing on the celebration of Juneteenth. Juneteenth is the oldest-recognized holiday of the liberation of African Americans in the US. Although we celebrate, it’s really a day of reflection for so many of us, myself included. With the deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor and countless others, I am left to wonder what is the solution … but really, how do we grieve at a time like this. In this week’s episode, we talk allyship, activism, why this matters on a macro level but also on a micro level in fashion and beauty, therapy resources, and why we will never stop working to make an inclusive world for all.

21 May 2021 | Haters Gon' Hate — Dealing w/ Haters And Walking In Your Purpose + More! | 00:32:18 | |
Hey y'all. Today we're talking about something nobody likes to discuss: Haters. They're everywhere and in abundance, especially when you're doing what you need to do and minding your business. So today's episode is dedicated to those that count you out, challenge you, and want you to show up less than what you are meant to be. We don't listen to them, FYI. As a Black content creator, I am constantly bombarded with love from my tribe, which makes dealing with people who want to shine a not-so-beautiful light on you a little more bearable. Haters are going to come with the territory, especially as you step into what it is you are meant to do and become. However, no worries. You can still shine and win. Check out the episode and let me know what you think. About the host: Jamé Jackson is a fashion and beauty media personality, journalist and influencer from Washington, D.C., although she proudly now calls Brooklyn home.

This week's episode is all about Blackness and luxury and entrepreneurship! Seriously, this debate has been going on forever, mostly because some people have a serious issue with Black women having nice things.

10 Nov 2020 | Birkin Bags, The Closing of Cushnie, And A Very Ghetto American Election | 00:44:30 | |
On this week's episode of the podcast, we talk all about the famous black female luxury design brand that has closed its doors because of Covid-19, the phenomena around celebrities and the access to Birkin bags and, of course, the US election which not only brought out a record number of voters but really exposed how Black women are the backbone of democracy in this country. Of course, I'm only sharing my personal political opinions in this episode, but I always urge you to do your own research and to find your truth and what works for you. What I will say is that it is important to be active even in your local community and local politics, and not leave the onus of survival on the backs of Black and brown people to carry an election. When it comes to Birkin bags, there is still a level of exclusiveness that is parallel to none. Make no mistake, just because you see more celebrities popping up with a bag doesn't mean that it's any easier to get. And of course, we have to analyze what COVID-19 and financial barriers really offer or don't offer Black designers let alone Black women designers. The number is staggeringly low for representation for Black female designers in the industry. And despite more opportunities that have recently surfaced because of racial discussions and a fashion reckoning of sorts, there is still a lot of work to be done. Cushnie is just one of many casualties of this phenomenon.
